I’m glad you addressed the OF situation. Modern feminism is trying to sell sex work as women empowerment, while a few might be freely and consciously choosing that path, that is not the case for the majority. It is the illusion of choice.

[@erinenright598]

So intensely agree with your wedding comment! As the daughter of parents who got married at a court house by themselves and their witnesses in jeans and sweaters, I have never wanted a big wedding. I've always wanted it to just be a special day with the person I love and luckily I've found a man who completely agrees with me. We're gonna say our vows at the court house with close family members and then go on a long honeymoon.

[@JessieB98]

Yes! I absolutely adore that 🥹 There’s something so special about an intimate wedding 😍

[@bettinak.4]

Yes! Our wedding was like that, 14 people total! It was intimate and one of the most special days in my life! We had a wedding lunch after the ceremony at our house, (decorated one room) and it was magical!

I agree on the retail work, but I think it extends to any job in service.

agree 100% with the only fans opinion, my master's research was exactly about this and the reality is very different from the glamourized version that is sold by the media and some "Influencers", and yeah definitely the age shouldn't be 18, totally agree!

I didn't get social media until I was 16 and between the ages of 16-18 just 2 years of being on social media I developed an eating disorder, became obsessed with looking skinny, I could no longer look in mirrors I covered them up because I didn't understand photoshop/airbrushing was a thing back then & would spend all my money on laser treatments to try get my skin looking "flawless" I became to depressed & anxious yet before social media I was always on my bike with friends outside and didn't even think or care about my acne then as I had nothing to compare it to! Crazy how it can change us. In a better space now at 26 surrounding social media I use Instagram a little but mainly just use KZbin now it has a different vibe here :)

“And I said what I said” 😂 I agree with all you said

[@desislavaveselinova1267]

I agree with your opinions, especially the only fans and the alcohol one. My problem with weddings is that I cannot figure out how to have the balance. I don't really want a big wedding, but I feel like in my country at least, even a small wedding cannot really save you that much money. I think my biggest problem is that I imagine a wedding in the nature, with flowers. Where the problem comes in: photographer is about 3000, videographer is also about 3000. I know the decoration is a lot as well. So even if I only think about video, photography and decorations it adds up to a lot of money. Also wedding venues in my country are pretty nasty. They have different prices per person based on how many people you host, if the people are fewer the cost per person rises. For example: 60 people = 165 per person, 80 people = 145 per person, 100 people = 125 per person. So you can see my point. Another thing is that I live in the capital of my country, so it is more expensive compared to the other parts of the country, but at the same time 90% of my family and friends live in my city, so even if i choose a cheaper destination, the cost of accommodating the guests would make it the same and even worse. Wedding business is an awful affair and they try to get you in man different ways.

[@Sunflower_mafy]

Agree 100%, the tumblr thing and the self harm thing is something I just recently thought about, so true

[@anabluu]

One year might be indeed beneficial, but I am in hospitality and retail for 12 years now , and it has completely exhausted my patience. Now I just go about my day wanting no one to talk to me, I'm a worse friend, I'm just done with people's problems. Re : the social media ban until 16, fully on board, maybe even make it 18.

[@lilyblake5409]

I feel this! I’ve been in retail for three years, but customer service for almost 5. The person I was before is no more…I applied for retail to work on my people skills and now I realize the general public just isn’t something I like dealing with 😭 I also find it so strange how many people come in when the store is closing and act entitled to stay past closing. Before working in retail, I used to get serious anxiety if a store was about to close within an hour, like it just seems rude!! But the store I work at frowns upon us pushing people out past closing 😒 (we got in trouble for letting people know it was time to leave) Agree with the social media, I got social media in high school and it was bad because being a relationship as a teenager with social media opened up a black hole

[@syndaria]

Totally agree about Onlyfans - it's really worrying!! 😔 I am really concerned about the impact of social media on teens or younger as well. I am 29 and even Bebo/Facebook/KZbin had me going through an ED, worried about my body... Let's not get onto the exposure to pornography at far too young an age, it rewires your brain. Thanks SO much for talking about sex trafficking! It happens here in the UK each day and we need to protect women and girls more than ever.

[@annaR1898]

I agree with the retail work! In our friend group we usually talk about how working "for the public" (we usually refer to food and restaurant industry since it is what we experienced) gave us more empathy both as workers and as customers. This works make you mature so so fast! Plus, I think that gets too overlooked when people say they want to "work on themselves and grow", as in we focus on working on the self, but not so much on ourselves as members of a community. It was very nice to see that you also got a similar experience! Thanks for the video!❤

[@JessieB98]

Yes 100%! The lessons it teaches you are truly invaluable! 👏🏻🥰

[@frickusernames]

I honestly agree with the point about cheating, ESPECIALLY in marriage. I know so many men who never break up with their partner when they aren't happy anymore, but instead cheat because it's somehow easier for them. Like stop being a bunch of pussy's and just break up with the person. If you want to cheat, you don't want to be in the relationship you're in. It is really not hard to just not cheat.

[@JessieB98]

AMEN! Louder for the people in the bloody back 🗣️👏🏻

[@sentimentalcircuscurator]

I totally agree about the wedding thing. I would rather have something small with the closest friends. But I understand maybe if all your relatives have meetups regularly, or are close, or maybe live in the same small town like you....? Then I would get it. But POTLUCKS are a thing!? I DO get the ones that want it to be "big" because of sibling rivalry, or "thats how our family does it" or maybe your the girl or guy that never EVER got a "big bash" growing up, and want the experience ?

[@pallasydoor7116]

I kinda agree with retail but also noticed , sometimes people experience the same thing and still manage to have zero empathy and don’t know how to relate it. Like “ I had it difficult , now you will too “ . There is a weird amount of people like that.

The alcohol point is sooooo true. I've never liked the taste of it, I have never been drunk, I think I can count the times I've had a bit of alcohol with one hand, and people are ALWAYS shocked about it, they tell me I should try getting drunk at least once in my life 😂an experience I MUST have.

[@OomuraMiki]

This is soooo relatable and I hate it😭 Why do people see it as such an essential part of everyone's life if THEY personally enjoy it

[@shabrinaz9877]

Where I live. If you're a govt workers (admin, tech, engineers whatever) theres a contract, where you can claim your husband's salary if He cheated and If He remarries the salary AND PENSION would still be sent to the First Wife. If He dies, the Pension still only goes to the children from the First Wife. 😊😊

[@nihalhathaway4089]

oh yes I totally agree on the social media thing as well. there should be much more regulations. So, regarding tumblr, do you think talking about things like self-harm therefore can "motivate" people to actually engage in such behaviour? instead of doing the opposite of making it more spoken about and normalized (which I guess, is the intention).

[@nihalhathaway4089]

personally, I find it so weird to have alcohol at parties of children (like baby showers, children's birthday, etc). Like I cannot drink in front of a child. Maybe because I grew up in a household were alcohol was not commonly consumed (in a casual way).

[@LanaHumble]

I’d never been much of a drinker (except in my first year at uni) but by the time I’d finished university I just stopped drinking all together because I didn’t see the point, and especially since I had my son, I have even less interest in alcohol. But every time I go round to my brothers house I have to explain that I don’t drink and yet he will always try to offer me a glass of wine and I always feel like I’m treated like I’m weird for not wanting to drink!? Even had a comment from his girlfriend saying “oh yeah I went through that phase too” 🤯

I have a blanket that my mum crocheted when she was pregnant with me on my bed. I;m living in LA at the moment so definitely don't need it during this heatwave. But it's a bit of home/personality, especially when I don't really have a say on the rest of the co-living apartment aesthetics, so my room has my own spin on things and it doesn't feel like I'm living in a prison cell. But on the flip side I don't like unnecessary clutter so like my room with everything having its place

It's a "hot take" I've had for a while now and never felt like I could ever say it out loud because I felt like I'd get told that I'm anti-women or something along those lines. And it's like no! I have this opinion because I'm for women! I just don't think the glamorization around it is particularly the best thing for women, especially young women, for all the reasons you mentioned.

[@circe.onessy]

i agree with all the points you made, although the working in retail one surprised me a little (like i didnt expect it XD). i think it ties in with an opinion of mine that i think it should be mandatory for teenagers to have a part time job while theyre still in school. even if its like only at their local corner shop stocking shelves or something. the second i left school i already had a sense of what the outside world was like, like what it meant to be responsible for myself, i had to plan my route from school to my local, make sure i got there early and then the general sense of knowing how to organise my daily routine so that i was doing all the school work i had and also had free time. also if its paid work, they get to learn responsibility around money, learn how to budget or save up for something meaningful that they really want, as opposed to spending all their money on sweets or junk thats only really harmful for them.

[@JessieB98]

Laws are for enforcing rights. There is no right that states you must only ever have healthy relationships. Also, Lawsuits take *_Forever_* to resolve. D'you really want the person who cheated on you to be entangled in your life for the next 3yrs?!... As adults, if we want to be free to pursue any relationships we wish with consenting people, then we must accept the bad along with the good. We cannot simply invite the state in to every facet of our lives to administrate over our problems.

I mean the more I think about weddings the more I would just elope and if the parents wanted to put on a party, then that's on them. My boyfriend's dad loves a party, and my mum would love to see me in a bridal dress so maybe we'd be convinced to do an evening do for the parents, but I'd rather be a guest to the reception, than be paraded around and not get to eat the yummy food I've paid for.

[@ThesaurusToblerone]

Making cheating illegal is like saying "I own you." It'd be used as a way to control who women have sex with. Also it would be so problematic to legally define what cheating is. You'd have men being like "I don't like your relationship with this male friend, so I'm going to sue you for cheating." I could write a whole essay on why this is wrong.

[@thetheatricallinguist]

Yeah, I'm definitely not condoning cheating, but saying 'just leave if you want to cheat, it's that easy' is a massive oversimplification. Some people can be absolutely miserable in a relationship (including a marriage) and not have the means to leave. It's not right to cheat, but you can see how some people might in that situation and then is it fair for them to be punished? Making it illegal would make the whole thing very paternalistic.

I try not to give the same energy back when someone's being rude to me but I just can't be the bigger person I'm 5 ft 🤷😂 also I don't believe if cheating was illegal less people would do it (think of the prohibition period in the u.s and how it didn't stop people from drinking it just made them do it secretly and dangerously) cheating is already so looked down upon and people do it anyway and hope to get away with it I don't personally feel like making it illegal would change the amount of people that cheat sadly I just feel like if someone wants to do something they're going to do it and hope to get away with it I have this opinion because as someone who's egyptian who's in the arab world and many things are illegal here in egypt (lgbtq+, etc.. etc.. sadly things that shouldn't be illegal.. I'm a bisexual in egypt lmao FUN) people are still going to be who they are and do things that are in their nature if someone is naturally a cowardly scumbag who would cheat instead of leaving they're going to do it anyway because whether it's illegal or not they're already trying to escape the consequences of their actions by trying to avoid a divorce or leaving their partner
